maybe it was my lack of sleep but these 2hrs at #fosdem were kinda like a fever dream

but maybe i'm just not used to being disoriented in cramped, unventilated spaces...?

how do i meet/get to know people there? how do i have fun?

@gnu_slash_gabber well, right now, seems lots of people are at delyrium village. Come and maybe you'll interact with some

@gnu_slash_gabber I grabbed two speakers, connected and promised more questions.

But I'm with you, most people have already their own company, so it's difficult to join them if you come alone.

Find booths about topics of interest to you, have a talk with the standholders or people around the same stand. Talk to speakers in the hallway (what we call hallway track) after their talks if you have more questions, talk to strangers waiting in line for food truck or sitting next to you in the bar... There was bytenight last night, unofficial after party in hacker space brussels. People active in some communities meet each other in real life at FOSDEM too.
